Update on private plugins in collections: core
prefers metadata instead of filename semantics, I created a new PR
for that (ref:
https://github.com/ansible-community/community-topics/issues/154,
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/79370)(felixfontein,

There is some agreement about identifying and
removing dead/unmaintained/unsed plugins in community.general and
community.network.(gotmax[m],

Ideas include: adding metadata about the
maintenance state of plugins, announcing orphaned plugins in the
changelog/bullhorn, maybe some sort of optional
survey/script/callback plugin to collect data, warnings after time
has at once, engaging the devtools team about data from ansible-lint
or the vscode plugin(gotmax[m],
